Simsy Posted March 19, 2005 Posted March 19, 2005 Just listened to Garland Green - Don't Let Love Walk Out On Us RCA 10889 1977 Great record, (£25 Shifty) Been £25 for 25 years! Well maybe not, but a long time. Vastly under rated and underplayed imo. What other records never really made it? Twice! Flop on general release and flop on the NS scene?

Guest Posted March 19, 2005 Posted March 19, 2005 Theres hundreds of records out there in the same mould ian sims.But if they dont get the dance floor filled im afraid its the old tryed and trusted box standard oldie.You cant blame the djs there only doing their job.

Don't know about tried and trusted oldies. Some 'newies' are instant and go massive. I'm talking about sounds that may have been perhaps overlooked to some degree, deserved better maybe
Guest Posted March 19, 2005 Posted March 19, 2005 Its true ian alot of sounds dont get the airplay they deserve.I suppose its coming round to who evers djing you will either hear the sound you want or not.Not getting into any politics you understand ian.
Pete S Posted March 19, 2005 Posted March 19, 2005 Jerry Jackson - Are you glad when we're apart - COLUMBIA link No, that one deserves to be ignored

Although another vastly underplayed would be monster is Steve Aldo - You're Absolutely right - PARLAPHONE Evey time I ask Mick Smith to play it, he takes it out of his box and shows me as if to say "yeah, here you are", but never/rarely plays the bugger!
Simsy Posted March 19, 2005 Author Posted March 19, 2005 No, that one deserves to be ignored link How so? It's got everything, uptempo, fantastic vocal, great pacey dancer ??? Sure you didn't mean Garland Green?
Pete S Posted March 19, 2005 Posted March 19, 2005 How so? It's got everything, uptempo, fantastic vocal, great pacey dancer ??? Sure you didn't mean Garland Green? link No I meant Jerry Jackson, it's horrible early 60's pop like most of his records. I love the Steve Aldo record though (and on the same label, John Andrews & The Lonely Ones - It's just love)

Guest NASHEE Posted March 19, 2005 Posted March 19, 2005 Jerry Jackson - Are you glad when we're apart - COLUMBIA link EXCELLENT CHOICE IAN ...TRY THIS ONE
Pete S Posted March 19, 2005 Posted March 19, 2005 Furry muff, although it's rough out there's a bit of a biggie. link Yeah thats great, so is the B side, and Wide Awake In A Dream, but I heard a cd of his stuff covering 62-65 and most of it was horrible
Martyn Pitt Posted March 20, 2005 Posted March 20, 2005 Johnny Dixon - Where are you - Boss Records, absolutely superb piece of soul music, I can not understand why this has not taken off. Martyn
Guest rachel Posted March 20, 2005 Posted March 20, 2005 (and on the same label, John Andrews & The Lonely Ones - It's just love) link Excellent tune
Guest Leigh J Posted March 20, 2005 Posted March 20, 2005 Excellent tune link During The Late 80's And Early 90's Myself And Glyn reardon Specificly Collected And Searched For Unknown And semi-Known Northern ,We found A lot Of Crap But Also A Lot Of Stuff That Was (And Still Is ) Overlooked. We Put On A few Soul Nights In This Vain And Were Virtually' run Out Of Town' For trying To Play New Music Three Of The Tracks That I Used To Play Have Recently Been Discused On This Forum ,Chantels,Ann caudell And Now The Steve aldo,Which i Telephoned Pete smith One saturday Afternoon A Few Years Ago For Info Which He happily Gave Me (Thanks Again) . The Great Man Guy Hennigan Once said "Every Record Has Its Day" Which Has proved To Be True ,eg.. Ruby Andrews What I Reckon It All Boils Down To Is Who Plays It, Not What It Sounds Like,If Top Dj,s Played These Records Then They Would go .This Happens On A Local Scale ,A Popular Dj Plays A Record That Gets Popular At The Local Soul Night But Thats Probably The Only Place Said Record Gets Played.A Good Example Of This Would Have Been The Old Sweet Pee club In Hinckley .

This is a real gem. Hoorah to you. At least now Orton can claps his ears round it for the first time..... M

Dazz Posted March 21, 2005 Posted March 21, 2005 Totally agree. And there is a copy on ebay right now... Johnny Dixon E-bay link Thought it might be worth mentioning that 'Where are you' by The Four Sonics on Triple B records is identical to Johnny Dixon, giving you a double chance at getting the record cheaply Dazz

I think, I'm not sure the Roy Hamilton may have been issued as a single on Epic
